By avoiding season-ending disappointment Saturday night, the Bruins set up a date with the team that broke their hearts last season.

David Pastrank's game-winning goal punched the Bruins' ticket to the second round, where the Black and Gold will meet the Florida Panthers.

The reigning Eastern Conference champions made quick work of the Tampa Bay Lightning in Round 1, winning the best-of-seven set in five games. When Matthew Tkachuck and company host the Black and Gold for their series opener Monday night, it will mark their first game since April 29.
